First Aid Measures

Emergency procedures for chemical exposure incidents

Inhalation

Blow nose to remove particulates from nose. Move to area with fresh air.

Symptoms: Mainly regarded as nuisance dust but may be irritating if inhaled at high concentrations. May cause coughing and/or sneezing.

Skin contact

Remove contaminated clothing gently to avoid creating dust. Wash skin. Launder affected clothing before re-use.

Symptoms: Low hazard.

Eye contact

Hold eyelid open and flush with clean water. Continue until grit is removed.

Symptoms: Solid and dust can be moderately irritating due to abrasiveness.

Ingestion

Wash mouth out with water ensuring the mouthwash is not swallowed. Give one or two glasses of water to drink.

Symptoms: Non-toxic. No known detrimental effect from accident ingestion as may occur during normal handling. Ingestion of large amounts may cause irritation to the gastro-intestinal system due to abrasiveness.

Immediate Medical Attention

Seek medical attention if a large quantity has been swallowed. Seek medical attention if adverse reaction develops. Seek medical attention if irritation or soreness persists. If skin becomes irritated, seek medical attention.

Medical Treatment

Treat symptomatically.

05

Firefighting Measures

07

Handling and Storage

Safe handling precautions, storage conditions, and workplace requirements

Handling

Dust generation should be minimised when handling. Wash thoroughly after handling.

Storage

Storage areas should be ventilated.

Hygiene

Wash thoroughly after handling.

08

Exposure Controls / PPE

Occupational exposure limits, engineering controls, and protective equipment

Engineering

Ventilation requirements will depend on handling methods and the amounts in use, but should be sufficient to maintain dust levels below exposure limits.

Eyes

Safety glasses or goggles.

Respiratory

If there is a risk of inhaling dust, wear an approved Class P1 or better respirator.
